Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a preparation technology of a solar cell, in particular to an indoor photovoltaic cell with a simple sandwich structure, belonging to the technical field of solar energy. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of Internet of Things technology, the number of terminal devices in its ecosystem has continued to grow exponentially, which has posed a challenge to the form of power source for the equipment. Therefore, the concept of indoor photovoltaics has gradually come into people's view. The biggest difference between indoor photovoltaics and conventional outdoor solar photovoltaic technology lies in the difference in incident light sources. Compared with the standard solar spectrum, the spectrum of indoor light sources is narrower and the intensity is weaker, and the optimal band gap of indoor photovoltaic application materials is around 1.9eV. Therefore, solar cells developed for traditional outdoor photovoltaic power generation are not necessarily suitable for indoor photovoltaic applications. Antimony sulfide has excellent material and optical properties, including simple binary composition, quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) crystal structure, high absorption coefficient (10 4 -10 5 ), low melting point (~500°C) and high vapor pressure, which make it possible to prepare high-performance, flexible and lightweight antimony sulfide IoT power electronic devices, and thus have attracted widespread attention (Chem. Eng. J. 2022, 446 (4): 137400). The band gap of antimony sulfide is about 1.75 eV, which is close to the optimal band gap value for indoor photovoltaic applications, and is suitable for indoor photovoltaic applications and as a top cell light absorption material for silicon-based tandem photovoltaic cells (Adv. Funct. Mater. 2021, 31 (27): 2100265).
[0003] The preparation of high-quality absorption layer films is the key to obtaining high-efficiency indoor photovoltaic cell device performance. At present, the methods for preparing antimony sulfide films are mainly divided into two categories: vacuum method and solution method. FTO conductive substrates have been widely used in the research and preparation of photovoltaic devices, but whether it is a vacuum method or a solution method, it is extremely difficult to directly deposit and prepare high-quality antimony sulfide films on FTO conductive substrates. At present, the mainstream structure of antimony sulfide photovoltaic cells is FTO conductive substrate / electron transport layer / antimony sulfide absorption layer / hole transport layer / back electrode. Although the introduction of the electron transport layer can improve the deposition quality of the antimony sulfide film to a certain extent, the presence of the electron transport layer and the hole transport layer complicates the preparation process of antimony sulfide photovoltaic cells and increases the difficulty of preparing antimony sulfide photovoltaic cell devices. At the same time, the preparation process of the electron transport layer and the hole transport layer is usually accompanied by the use of toxic chemicals, which poses challenges to safety and environmental friendliness.
[0004] The near-space sublimation method is a thin film preparation method suitable for large-scale industrial production. It has the advantages of simple operation, independent evaporation source and evaporation substrate temperature, high deposition rate and easy large-area preparation. At present, it has been successfully used to prepare efficient commercial cadmium telluride thin film solar cells. The development of a process route suitable for directly depositing high-quality antimony sulfide thin films on conductive substrates is of great significance to promote the industrialization of antimony sulfide indoor photovoltaic cells. Summary of the invention
[0005] The present invention aims to solve the shortcomings of the above-mentioned prior art and provides a sandwich simple structure indoor photovoltaic cell and a preparation method thereof. The method of the present invention is based on the crystal nucleus engineering strategy, and directly prepares a high-quality antimony sulfide absorption layer film on a conductive substrate by a near-space sublimation method, and applies it to construct an indoor photovoltaic cell.
[0006] The present invention firstly discloses an indoor photovoltaic cell with a simple sandwich structure, whose device structure from bottom to top is FTO conductive substrate / antimony sulfide absorption layer / metal electrode, specifically, an antimony sulfide absorption layer is arranged on the FTO conductive substrate, and a metal electrode is arranged on the antimony sulfide absorption layer.
[0007] Furthermore, the thickness of the antimony sulfide absorption layer is 500-800 nm.
[0008] Furthermore, the thickness of the metal electrode is 60-120 nm, and the metal electrode is a gold electrode or a silver electrode.
[0009] The present invention also discloses a method for preparing the sandwich simple structure indoor photovoltaic cell, which specifically comprises the following steps:
[0010] Step 1: Cleaning of FTO conductive substrate
[0011] The FTO conductive substrate was ultrasonically cleaned in deionized water, acetone and anhydrous ethanol for 20-40 minutes respectively. After cleaning, it was blown dry with nitrogen and then placed in a UV ozone cleaning machine for cleaning for 20-40 minutes.
[0012] Step 2: Preparation of antimony sulfide absorber layer
[0013] The antimony sulfide absorption layer was prepared by the near-space sublimation method: the antimony sulfide powder was placed at the evaporation source of the near-space sublimation equipment, the FTO conductive substrate cleaned in step 1 was placed at the evaporation substrate of the near-space sublimation equipment, and the air pressure in the internal cavity of the equipment was reduced to 1 Pa by using a vacuum pump, and the evaporation substrate and the evaporation source were heated.

After reaching the set temperature, stop heating, cool the evaporation source temperature to 300°C for 5 minutes, and the seed layer preparation process is completed; heat the evaporation substrate and the evaporation source, the target temperature is 290-310°C, the heating time is 2 minutes, and the heat preservation is 15 minutes; keep the evaporation substrate temperature unchanged, continue to heat the evaporation source, the target temperature is set to 530-550°C, the heating time is 1 minute, and the heat preservation is 1-2 minutes, and the evaporation substrate and evaporation source are stopped from heating; turn off the vacuum pump, and after the equipment cavity returns to room temperature and normal pressure, take out the sample to obtain the antimony sulfide absorption layer;
[0014] Step 3: Preparation of metal electrodes
[0015] The metal electrode is prepared by thermal evaporation: the FTO conductive substrate / antimony sulfide absorption layer sample prepared in step 2 is placed in a thermal evaporation device, and the metal electrode is evaporated with an evaporation current of 100-130A, an evaporation voltage of 3-4V, and an evaporation time of 7-10min.
[0016] Furthermore, in step 1, the size of the FTO conductive substrate is cut according to the required size.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0018] (1) The present invention directly induces the preparation of high-quality antimony sulfide films on conductive glass substrates through a crystal nucleus engineering strategy.
[0019] (2) The FTO conductive substrate / antimony sulfide absorption layer / metal electrode sandwich simple structure indoor photovoltaic cell prepared by the present invention significantly simplifies the cell device structure and greatly shortens the device preparation cycle compared to the traditional conductive substrate / electron transport layer / antimony sulfide absorption layer / hole transport layer / metal electrode device structure.
